I've been given way too much free time lately, and it's all thanks to my foot.
After getting surgery, it's been a loooong wait and it gets longer by the day. With a week and a half gone by, i've been able to read scriptures, watch netflix all day, play nintendo, or read artsy philosophical books. I've done a little of each(some more than others, needless to say), and I feel like there was a point where i lost touch with the person that I was when i first came home from serving a full-time mission. So, i started looking through pictures, reading out of my "baggy" that i had other missionaries and members write in before i left, and stared at my set of scriptures, all marked up and in the lovely language of Spanish. I came home super motivated, ready to do whatever came my way with a positive attitude and the potential to do what I needed to do. Looking back I can see what's slowed me down a bit through these last 8 months. Haha, to be honest, i'm a bit ashamed of myself for letting me just be okay with it for this long. Waiting for others to come around doesn't change your situation, the time to act is now. I could care less how "cliche" I sound by saying all of this, I just feel like I need to put this up to vent, or whatever. Everyone, just be yourself and take opportunities that come to improve yourself, there's nothing wrong with a little bit of change. Becoming refined is what we should all aim for.
By the way, my mustache is coming along nicely, just in case you were wondering. Have a good one!
